Kennedy High. In Bio's classroom, Josh sits contentedly hugging his school bag to his chest. I guess if a bookbag could provide him with that much joy, it's no wonder he's dating Carmen. Brooke enters, wearing a pink Barbie pantsuit. Her hair is not in a zigzag part, for once but she's back to that braid, sort of -- it's more to the side now. She greets Josh warmly and sits down in the seat right in front of him. As soon as her bony butt hits the seat, she whirls around and starts reminiscing about the time when his mother got a tapeworm in Cancun. Apparently, a chapter she read last night about parasites is what triggered that memory. Josh laughs along politely. Carmen enters in a baby blue cardigan and a cleavage-baring clingy burgundy undershirt and says hello to Brooke. Brooke greets her sweetly with a "How are you?" but her smile hardens as Carmen sits in the seat next to Josh. Carmen tells Brooke that she's fine with a barely noticeable smirk and then tells Josh that she's got tickets "for Saturday night." Josh is excited by her news and starts making out with her right then and there. Brooke turns around in her seat. It's hard to tell if her look of horror is due to the fact that she's lost Josh to Carmen or whether she, like millions of home viewers nationwide, is repulsed by the sight of the chemistry-free pairing that is Carmen and Josh. I hate to say this because it's really supposed to be a good thing that "the fat girl" has gotten her man -- that is, if we are to overlook the fact that "fat" is not an appropriate description of Carmen. However, they just look so wrong together. Especially since Carmen is looking really unphotogenic in this scene. You'd think, because she's got the boyfriend she's been wanting, that she'd be glowing.

Bio appears before the class, screams, "Earthquake!" and drops a large stack of books. "Take cover!" he/she barks, and all the students reluctantly scoot under their desks. Bio inspects their positions and kicks Josh's legs, which are sticking out from under the desk he's sharing with Carmen. She walks up to Nicole, who is not under her desk but filing her nails defiantly in the aisle as so not to ruin her outfit. Oh no, Nicole has Macy Gray hair today. "Why aren't you under your desk?" asks Bio. "Because if I wanted to play dust mop, I would have worn your clothes," answers Nicole. Bio warns Nicole about the tonnage of building materials that could be falling on her in the even of a real earthquake. Nicole goes, "Hmmm," and Bio changes her mind and tells Nicole not to move. Unfortunately, this and some overt sexual remarks that come later are going to be the only entertainment we get out of Bio this week.
